This document discusses the European Innovation Partnership on Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI) and Horizon 2020. It outlines the governance structure of the EIP-AGRI, including operational groups and funding instruments. The objectives of the EIP-AGRI are also summarized, which are to increase sustainable agricultural productivity, adapt to climate change, and accelerate knowledge transfer from research to farms. Potential topics for EIP focus groups are listed, including genetic resources, soil organic matter, and integrated pest management in grapes.

4. Objetivos:
Fortalecer la competitividad del sector agrario, líder en procesos y productos
que contribuya a la seguridad alimentaria global.
Incrementar la productividad a la vez que se asegura la gestión sostenible de
los recursos
Adaptarse a las implicaciones del Cambio Climático y contribuir a la mitigación
reduciendo los GEI.
Acelerar la transferencia del conocimiento desde la investigación a las
explotaciones agrarias asegurando la retroalimentación sobre las necesidades
básicas de la ciencia. (Aproximación Bottom-Up)

15. Temas para EIP-Focus Groups 2013
1 Genetic resources
2 Protein crops
3 Animal production management issues. Anti-biotic use
4 Optimising yields in organic [low input] arable rotations
5 Soil organic matter content of soils and soil fertility
6 IPM in grape and soft fruit
http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/eip/

16. Temas para EIP-Focus Groups (Sept. 2013) (Borrador)
http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/eip/
Genetic resources
• Economic value: making use of genetic diversity
• Practices that work or not work for making a profit from conservation
varieties, including new business models
• Possible links with consumer and quality aspects such as nutritional issues,
diversity of taste, beneficial health effects, etc
• Interlinking with genebanks and related research work

17. Temas para EIP-Focus Groups (Sept. 2013) (Borrador)
http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/eip/
Soil organic matter content of soils and soil fertility
• Soil fertility and best practices for keeping up/enhancing organic matter
content of soils: crop and soil management in the long-term context of
the crop rotation, including farm, inter-farm and urban-rural strategies
and environmental effects
• Better use of cover cropping, genetic resources (e.g. crops with
beneficial effect on OM), soil micro-organisms for nutrient uptake
• By-products [waste] recycling and smarter use of residues on land (incl
composting, closing cycles, in the context of changing market
demands/biobased purposes etc)?
• Link with better implementation of the new cross compliance
requirement: "maintenance of soil organic matter level …"

18. Temas para EIP-Focus Groups (Sept. 2013) (Borrador)
http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/eip/
IPM in grape and soft fruit [next focus group: vegetables & other minor uses]
(focus on crops with highest residues, even if minor/specialised crops –
check, eg strawberries)
• Good practices and how to implement them in different geographical
contexts
• Impact of crop rotations and intercropping, early diagnosis of plant
diseases and efficient selection of disease resistance , including spraying
technologies, ICT, etc
• Beneficial management of green infrastructure for IPM, water use impact
etc
• Cross-fertilisation with organic farming techniques and consumers
